[Bug 1186751] Re: Don't hard-depend on humanity-icon-theme
The category/subcategory icons are USC-specific, so I'd be surprised if gnome-icon-theme ever included them. It might make more sense to move them inside the USC codebase, so USC can use them as a last-ditch fallback whenever the current theme chain doesn't provide them. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1186751 Title: Don't hard-depend on humanity-icon-theme To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/gnome-icon-theme/+bug/1186751/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Even the HighContrast theme which is included in Ubuntu by default ships those icons. I believe you are hurting accessibility by not allowing the HighContrast theme to provide those icons. The problem with hard-coding an icon theme is that it is a hack, a workaround to improve things for one app but making things more difficult for app developers (since they'll have to figure out similar hacks...which will cause problems if they want their apps to work on other distros as well) and theme developers who have to be aware of these issues. If there are icons that need to be available for all themes, please ship them in /usr/share/icons/hicolor/ instead.

[Bug 1186751] Re: Don't hard-depend on humanity-icon-theme
just to clarify: - we depend on the humanity-icon-theme. There are many icon themes that do not ship all the category (no longer relevant) and subcategory (still required) icons. This leads to empty / generic icons being displayed if humanity-icon-theme is not installed - this being a suboptimal experience -, and we have had bug reports about this. It is perhaps unfortunate that this requires a dependency on humanity-icon-theme, but I think it's justifiable. - the humanity icon theme is added last, this means that the current icon theme (this can also be the high contrast icon theme) gets the first opportunity to supply all the icons, the humanity icon theme is used solely as a fallback. - everything in softwarecenter/ui/qml was experimental. If I recall correctly at the time when that was written it was not known how to (or perhaps not even possible to) load icons from the icon theme or something of the likes. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1186751 Title: Don't hard-depend on humanity-icon-theme To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/software-center/+bug/1186751/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
